Hey, I'm looking to get a 5 speed supra gearbox for my non turbo VL Berlina, is there a specific one that i should be looking for that anyone knows about? If so please tell me,otherwise i'm looking blind LoL

i don't think it will really matter as long as you get the bellhousing to suit the RB30 and that particular box. plus you'll need the length of the box for a tailshaft to fit. you may need to get one made.

Any particular reason why you want the supra box and not just going the straight bolt up r33 5speed box?

 

[vlwalky_chick]

no not really,i've just been told there strong. haven't really herd about the r33 box's . . . .

Nah i don't have to get one made,i know of people who have them,but just haven't gotten around to asking them about it because there not close friends lol plus they prolly know **** all about cars

My fantasy is to drop a VL turbo motor in mine, and then bolt it onto a close ratio 6-speed from the 350Z!

I'd say just stick with the 33 5speed. they go from anywhere between 1-2k from what I've gathered, you can use the mx7 flywheel and clutch - I think, some people say yes and some say no. If not you'll have to drop the flywheel and clutch down to the smaller size which just so happens to be the same size as the mf5 gearbox size. Then you just have to source yourself a good clutch, plug in the speedo, the yolk for the tailshaft can be sourced new very easily. And then you just need to make an adapter place for the slave cylinder and away you go. Easy apparently.

Not trying to be a party pooper or anything, but if its a n/a rb30, then why the need for the bigger box, you'll be amazed how much of a flogging the stockers can handle ???:whistling
